Isle of Man golfer Ana Dawson is making her mark on the global stage, and Affinity Sports is proud to be supporting her journey.

The Island’s only female professional golfer, Ana, is now competing on the 2026 Ladies European Tour (LET), one of the world’s leading women’s golf tours. In her first full season, she is already demonstrating significant progress against elite international competition.

After making just two LET appearances in 2025, including a T120 finish at the Investec South African Women’s Open, Ana has taken a major step forward in 2026. She has already secured a career-best Top 25 finish, consistently making cuts and competing mid-field, a strong indicator of her rapid development at this level.

Having played six tournaments so far this season, Ana has approximately 20 events remaining, providing a significant opportunity to build momentum and climb the rankings as the year progresses.

Recognising her potential early, Affinity Sports partnered with Ana in 2026 to support her transition onto the international stage.

As part of its work with Ana, Affinity Sports is also leading efforts to secure local sponsorship opportunities on the Isle of Man.

A Role Model on and off the Course

Ana is quickly becoming one of the Isle of Man’s most recognisable sporting figures. Her performances are regularly featured across press and broadcast media, and she is a frequent guest on local radio. She is also a Brand Ambassador for Hyatt.

Between tournaments, Ana spends time playing on the Isle of Man, inspiring the next generation of golfers, particularly young girls entering the sport.

Ana is a key role model for the younger generations who want to achieve their dreams. She was the first Manx player to earn full playing rights on any main-stream tour (male or female) and began travelling off of the Isle of Man at 12 years old to improve her game and explore different coaching opportunities.

Ana’s ability to redefine and exceed expectations is not only a representation of her strength of character, but also of her commitment to achieving her goals. Ana is the quintessence of when talent meets hard work and she continually demonstrates to all those aspiring to become professional athletes, that any goal can be achieved.

Ana’s Journey

Ana began playing golf at Peel Golf Club and represented the Isle of Man at the 2015 Island Games. Her talent quickly became evident, earning her a scholarship to the University of Memphis, where she was recognised as a WGCA All-American Scholar and played a key role in the Memphis Tigers women’s golf team.

Following her return to Europe, Ana achieved success across multiple amateur tournaments, including victories at the Faldo Series Wales Girls Championship and the Faldo Series Grand Final in the UAE.

She turned professional in 2022 and secured her first professional win in 2023, claiming the Roehampton Gold Cup while setting a new course record, a standout performance that highlighted both her resilience and natural ability.

What’s Next

With a full LET season ahead, 2026 represents a pivotal year in Ana’s career. With continued support, she is well-positioned to build on her early results and establish herself on the international stage.

Affinity Sports will continue to support Ana both on and off the course, helping to grow her profile while building meaningful partnerships with businesses across the Isle of Man and beyond. Ana will also be returning to the Island for a Corporate Golf Day at Peel Golf Club on 8th June. Tickets are priced at £100 per team of four, including lunch.
